JERUSALEM – Accusing the Jewish state of "genocide," an anti-Israel Palestinian activist once commended by President Obama has predicted the end of Israel, which, he boasted, is "within reach, in our lifetimes."
In a piece earlier this month titled, "Why Israel won't survive," Ali Abunimah, co-founder of Electronic Intifada, a pro-Palestinian online publication,

We’ll see who ends who. The great “I AM” will see Israel through. Amen.
If they go down, hopefully they exhaust their entire arsenal on the surrounding region.
This idiot is really reaching. Propaganda...that’s all it is.
A sure bet is putting your money on Israel. She will NOT fall!
If Israel goes, so does Mecca, Medina, the Dome of the Rock, and probably every major city in the Muslim Mideast. ...at the very least. With Israel possessing around 400 nukes, it's a mutually assured destruction situation. Most Muslims conveniently forget that.
B. Hussein Obama’s Israel-hating buddies.

Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama is currently hiding his anti-Israel views in order to get elected, according to a well-known anti-Israel activist. The activist, Ali Abunimah, claimed to know Obama well and to have met him on numerous occasions at pro-Palestinian events in Chicago.
In an article he penned for the anti-Israeli website **Electronic Intifada**, Abunimah wrote:
______________________
“The last time I spoke to Obama was in the winter of 2004 at a gathering in Chicago’s Hyde Park neighborhood. He was in the midst of a primary campaign to secure the Democratic nomination for the United States Senate seat he now occupies. But at that time polls showed him trailing.
“As he came in from the cold and took off his coat, I went up to greet him. He responded warmly, and volunteered, ‘Hey, I’m sorry I haven’t said more about Palestine right now, but we are in a tough primary race.
I’m hoping when things calm down I can be more up front.’ He referred to my activism, including columns I was contributing to the The Chicago Tribune critical of Israeli and US policy [and said:] ‘Keep up the good work!’”

Barack, Michelle, Edward and Mariam
Abunimah’s report included a photo of Obama with his wife Michelle seated at a table with virulently anti-Israeli Professor Edward Said and his wife Mariam, in what Abunimah said was a May 1998 Arab community event in Chicago at which Said gave the keynote speech.
In an interview earlier this year for the leftist radio show “Democracy Now!,” a daily TV and radio news program hosted by Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez, Abunimah said he knew Obama for many years as his state senator “when he used to attend events in the Palestinian community in Chicago all the time.”
“I remember personally introducing him onstage in 1999, when we had a major community fundraiser for the community center in Deheisha refugee camp in the occupied West Bank,” he recounted. “And that’s just one example of how Barack Obama used to be very comfortable speaking up for and being associated with Palestinian rights and opposing the Israeli occupation.

Barack Obama’s Islamist ties to Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said and Ali Abunimah
September 10, 2008
Barack Obama’s connection to radical Islamists such as Rashid Khalidi and Ali Abunimah have received scant media attention. Ali Abunimah, who runs the Electronic Intifada website said that he met Obama at many pro-Palestinian events in Chicago. In 1998 Obama and his wife attended a banquet at which the virulently anti Israel professor Edward Said was the keynote speaker.

The muslims god must be a pansy.
Doesn’t the LA Times have some OB anti-Israel quotes they won’t publish?
The radiation fallout from a single atomic explosion in Israel would travel east with the jet stream winds, could be hundreds miles long, and up to 30 miles wide.
Distance from Tel Aviv to Damascus is 132 miles.
to Jeddah is 771 miles
to Riyadh is 890 miles
to Tehran is 988 miles
to Mecca is 789 miles
oops.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has kept Israel there; and He will keep Israel in the land.
It is God they are fighting.
God wins.
BTTT!
They supposedly have a videotape of that 2004 gathering of B. Hussein Obama and his radical Palestinian, hate Israel buddies, which they refuse to release.
Come on. This is a stretch tie this guy with Osama. WND grasping for creditability here.
Post #9
If this happens, the middle east will cease to exist.....hopefully.
A stretch you say? Why don't we look at Obama's first week in office related to this WND article and see if it is:
Sends Mitchell to Israel on first day in office.
Talks on Al Arabia for is first interview in office.
Talks about his Muslim roots in the interview after avoiding it all campain long.
Appoints known Israel hater Samantha Power after kicking her off the campaign to appease Jewish voters.
So when Arab terror lovers jump up and down with glee, they have good reason.
In which our Muslim Undercover Brother, Obama, insinuated that we were done dictating what other (Muslim) countries should do. In other words, Israel is, and always has been the enemy.
